Czech Games Edition CGE00126 Codenames Duet (2025)

Czech Games Edition's Codenames Duet (CGE00126) is a fully cooperative two-player word game in which both players work together to contact all their secret agents before time runs out. Unlike the original Codenames, there's no competing team here — you and your partner share a grid of 25 words, each holding a map card that only you can see, and you must give one-word clues to guide each other to the right words without hitting assassins. It plays in around 15 to 30 minutes and is suitable for ages 11 and up, making it a sharp, focused game well suited to couples, friends, or anyone who wants a cooperative challenge in a compact format.

Key Features

• Fully cooperative — both players win or lose together, with no hidden competing agendas.
• Dual-sided map cards mean each player has different information, so communication through clues is the only way to succeed.
• Includes a campaign mode with a series of missions that add a light narrative thread across multiple sessions.
• The 15 assassin tokens create real tension, as hitting one ends the game immediately regardless of progress.
• Compact and fast to set up, making it easy to play multiple rounds in a single sitting.
